So, for example, randomness led me to freelancing. It's not for nothing that they talk about fate: they lead the obedient and drag the disobedient. If something changes in your life - either submit, or "drag you". Of course, this does not mean that we must agree to adventures. As a rule, what is our destiny is a little higher, a little more complicated than what is now.
A small obstacle - and it's up to you to decide, gather strength and "jump", or stay where you are.
What if my favorite job does not bring any money? Resign and wait for "the weather on the sea", complain about lazy friends and relatives who find it difficult to find the right connections? My experience suggests that sometimes it's worth trusting the world and noticing the chances that it gives.
A young specialist is a stigma. This is worse than the brand of the bull. An animal, at least, has a function, given by nature, which it will somehow fulfill. And a person is more complicated.
Women's "normal" function is to marry successfully, a university (for men, of course, less respectful, but you can also find a rich widow) is not the best way out. It involves self-denial, deliberate lowering of the demand bar.
As a young specialist, I could count on a salary of a miserable 100 bucks a month. Also knew, that my friend moonlighting "somewhere there, on the Internet". I went to the oldest freelance exchange in runet, looked, did not understand anything and went out.
Then something happened that I would call a "good chance". When I thought about where I would go after the completion of compulsory work at the publishing house, I placed the questionnaires and cheerfully answered vacancies. And - about a miracle! - they called me and invited me to interview. Deciding that fate just does not joke, and remembering that she leads a submissive, but drags the disobedient, I got ready with the spirit and went for an interview.
As a result, a test of my knowledge and skills was conducted by a girl from my university, but 2 years younger. It was a blow below the belt, but I endured and showed myself to be a good fellow. As a result, I spent a month working for 100 bucks, and for a week and a half worked for a glossy magazine, getting three times more.
Then I thought about the efficiency of my work. That "guarantees" on the main place of work are mythical. There are no them actually. And if someone comes who wants to do the same job, but even cheaper than I do - I'll have to "move forward." Moreover, there is such a designation - BDB. Often long ill. They are not kept at work, firing at the first opportunity. And there are opportunities - there would be a desire.
The only guarantee that every person has is his hands and his head. And fate, as you know, leads a submissive and drags the disobedient. Therefore, there are sometimes obstacles, through which it is easier to "jump" than it, Fate, drag along them by drag ...
What conclusion can be drawn from this story? Yes, whatever.
- Someone senses that it is necessary to be able to notice the chances that destiny gives, to see how the thread leads through events, through chance, submissive to its fate, and drags the disobedient, limiting the concrete walls where you do not have to be. And do not try to break these walls.
About the odds the conclusion is correct. After all, sometimes a small event or a miserable probability of earning is enough for a person to tear off the ass from the sofa and do something useful for himself. For example, he started freelancing, and did not hang in the evenings in front of the TV, "resting" from the works of the righteous.
- Someone will say: "This is the beginning of a good career."
Well, knowing your capabilities is important, but in fact, striving for more is good and right. "Making a million by the end of the year" is the peak. And learn how to earn a half or two times more, give yourself a fur coat, a washing machine, or afford a subscriber in a spa for a year - this is already worthy. It is important to notice these "little things" that would not have been without your efforts.
- And someone will see how some events shape our values.
Perhaps, this is the most valuable conclusion. And there would be no great dream of making many websites, earning them, regardless of customers, if there was not that very first job ...
How much in life depends on obedience to your destiny, and how little - from perseverance in overcoming concrete barriers!
